My goal is for this subreddit to be a good resource for vegans in search of answers about how drug use can still fit into a plant-based diet. Please stay civil, and use the appropriate subreddits for sourcing.

TL;DR: Check this site for alcoholic beverages that are suitable for vegans.

While most hard liquors are completely vegan, some alcoholic beverages are filtered through fish bladders or include gelatin or other non-plant-derived ingredients. Because alcohol does not have to adhere to the same food labeling guidelines as other foodstuffs, manufacturers are not required to list these ingredients. Fortunately for us, we have resources to figure out what's suitable for us tree-huggers! Using Barnivore's database, either search for a keyword or just browse through the lists of what alcoholic beverages are vegan, and which are not.

What are your favorite beverages? What did you hate to have to give up on when you transitioned, or realized months into your veganism was not suitable for your diet? Are there any good close alternatives to popular drinks that are not vegan? Please share any other helpful websites/resources on the topic!

I understand the personal and societal harm that can be caused by alcohol, but DO NOT SHAME OTHERS FOR HAVING A DIFFERENT DRUG OF CHOICE. This is a harm reduction space, and that attitude has no place here; please be civil.

As far as I am aware, no step in the process of making cocaine uses any sort of animal products (please correct me if I am wrong), though some vegans may choose to abstain due to the ethical issues with the distribution of the drug and the human lives sacrificed to bring it from Colombian trees to your nostrils.

What is your opinion on the subject? Are cartel-produced drugs not vegan because humans are animals, and are often made to suffer to allow you to get high? Is it not the same as a helpless animal because traffickers put themselves in that situation, knowing the possible consequences? Any other viewpoints? Chime in!
